Abstract The challenges which the large scale microalgal industry is facing are associated
with the high cost of key operations such as harvesting, nutrient supply and oil extraction.
The high-energy input for harvesting makes current commercial microalgal biodiesel
production economically unfeasible and can account for up to 50% of the total cost of biofuel
production. Co-cultivation of fungal and microalgal cells is getting increasing attention
because of high efficiency of bio-flocculation of microalgal cells with no requirement for
